Governance for Health: Priorities for Post-2015 and Beyond

View the video from the panel presentation below:

The USAID-funded Leadership, Management & Governance (LMG) Project led by Management Sciences for Health (MSH) hosted a high-level side event in conjunction with the 67th World Health Assembly (WHA) on May 21, 2014 at the Geneva Press Club in Geneva, Switzerland. The event, “Governance for Health: Priorities for Post-2015 and Beyond,” featured an interactive panel and discussed the following questions:

How does smart governance interact and enable leadership and management practices in the health system?

What are additional gains that result from good governance for health?

How can improved governance better engage all stakeholders, especially women and youth leaders as equal partners?

How can good governance for health be effective in an atmosphere of donor-driven health priorities? Is the demand for governance coming from the country or the donor?

Governance for health is vaguely defined and understood, where does good governance fit in the post-2015 framework and what are the strategies to prioritize it?

MSH launched the beta version of its Govern4Health app, targeted to leaders, managers, and those who govern within health systems. Download it today!
